A new 'redemption' trailer from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 sets the story for the upcoming continuation of the Call of Duty series of military first-persons shooters. The action-packed clip is mostly cinematics, but some gameplay sneaks in here and there.

I still don't remember much camping in the MW games. Since spawning is dymanic you kind of can't, as you never know where you have to expect people to come from.

Anyway, of course this shows the big cinematic scenes. CoD was founded on ripping off WW2 movies. And the MW games have thrived by creating huge cinematic scenes. To their credit they're awesome at creating those. They just suck at giving them a coherent connection. No one ever knows what the hell just happened in those games.

Then again, if I want to see what MW3 looks like in game, I can go fire up the first MW...

If it ain't broke...

I thought it was DOA.

I'm just so tired of completely linear and completely scripted military shooters. There's no variety, no innovation, no ambition. Same enemies, same weapons, same vehicles, same settings, same storylines, same gameplay. The multiplayer's not really my cup of tea either, since victory typically boils down to who sees who first. I prefer long, epic battles ala Quake and Tribes, where victory is the result of pure skill, as opposed to who found the best camping spot or established first line of sight.
